How to Share iCal With Others

Apple’s iCal has a variety of features, including the option to publish your calendars online and share them with other people. When you publish a calendar online and share it, the people who you send it to are able to see any updates and new events you make or add to that calendar through iCal. Unfortunately, as of the time of publication, you must have a MobileMe account or access to a server to be able to publish your calendars.
